When I'm asked to train a new employee, they often say they wish they were as good as I am. And I tell them I should be better than them. I've been doing this for 32 years. You're just getting started. So if they as novices can do something as good as me, that is either an indictment on my ability or they would have to be some kind of wunderkind.

Dalton should look better than Young. He is a vet.

But I will say Dalton looked good cause he was actually allowed to play QB. Panthers threw 58 times & ran only 14 (81 to 19%). The other 3 were Young starts & he has thrown just 103 times while the team ran 82 (56 to 44%) I saw a stat where Carolina has ran the ball on 1st down 31 times the last 3 games for 55 yds. Versus the Seahawks they ran 10 times for 11 yds on 1st down.


Young's struggles is exasperated because his O line does nothing well, his starting RB can't get him 3yds a carry & his coaches don't trust him. The play calling is too predictable. They never attack vertically. That is hard for a rookie QB to overcome when you are behind the chains & you're facing obvious passing downs cause the running game hasn't provided support. So I can't judge the kid yet while the support everyone raved he would get hasn't materialized.
